Moving Chado svn repository to github
 
|
Hi all,
I'm thinking about moving the Chado svn repository to Github; I had some issues with the SourceForge repository over the last few weeks so I think the time to move is on us. I won't do the move until next week at the earliest, but I wanted to give everybody time to think it over and make any commits that are sitting around.
Please let me know if you'd rather I didn't do this, and if so, preferably some well-thought out reason why not :-) Thanks, Scott ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Scott Cain, Ph.

One potential downside (to either of these hosts) is you will not get download counts or clone counts. If you use those figures at the moment as a proxy for your user base size this could be important. Also make sure you are happy with the different GitHub support for downloads - you can't just upload a bunch of compiled packages like you can at SourceForge: https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads I hope that is helpful, Regards, Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing Performance Central, a new site from SourceForge and AppDynamics.

Hi Peter, I wasn't aware of the downloads issues, but since out wiki already points at SourceForge for package downloads, I guess I can just keep using it for that. While I will take a look at BitBucket, I'm leaning heavily towards GitHub since that is where the GBrowse, Bio::Graphics and JBrowse repositories are currently housed.

I've a feeling they're starting to repurpose themselves as a publishing/download service. chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing Performance Central, a new site from SourceForge and AppDynamics.

Hi Scott,
Really appreciate making this move, however, would you be using the issue tracker/pull request system to accept patches if needed. I am not sure about how it is going to fit with the workflow at your end, just throwing out an idea. As far as package download is concern, i believe you will get a downloadable tarball for each of your git tag. In addition, you could also draft a tarball release through github's web UI. thanks, -siddhartha On Mon, 19 Aug 2013, Scott Cain wrote: > Hi Peter, > I wasn't aware of the downloads issues, but since out wiki already points > at SourceForge for package downloads, I guess I can just keep using it for > that. > While I will take a look at BitBucket, I'm leaning heavily towards GitHub > since that is where the GBrowse, Bio::Graphics and JBrowse repositories > are currently housed. > Scott > > On Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 1:01 PM, Peter Cock <[hidden email]> > wrote: > > On Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 5:54 PM, Scott Cain <[hidden email]> wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > I'm thinking about moving the Chado svn repository to Github; I had > some > > issues with the SourceForge repository over the last few weeks so I > think > > the time to move is on us.

True enough, I don't see a way to count downloads and clones! However, everything else about GitHub is generally superior than Sourceforge, so I support a migration.

It does look as though you can count downloads on a repository via the REST API: http://developer.github.com/v3/activity/events/types/#downloadevent Lincoln On Thu, Aug 29, 2013 at 3:47 PM, Lincoln Stein <[hidden email]> wrote:

I have also found something like this,
https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/downloads. However, it might not be possible for recent repos, because they have discontinued their upload process which used to keep track of the downloads. https://github.com/blog/1302-goodbye-uploads thanks, -siddhartha On Thu, 29 Aug 2013, Lincoln Stein wrote: > It does look as though you can count downloads on a repository via the > REST > API: http://developer.github.com/v3/activity/events/types/#downloadevent > Lincoln > > On Thu, Aug 29, 2013 at 3:47 PM, Lincoln Stein <[hidden email]> > wrote: > > True enough, I don't see a way to count downloads and clones!
